Will Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Route Work for Tiger?

Baaghi 4 has been cleared by the CBFC with an Adults Only (A) certificate, marking a first for the franchise. The teaser released last month hinted at this possibility. The film has a runtime of 2 hours 44 minutes, making it one of the longest in the series.

The story reportedly follows the lead character who survives a train crash and then takes a self-destructive path, haunted by memories of his lost love. With intense violence and action, the film clearly caters to a more mature audience.

The trailer is expected to arrive on August 30, just six days before release. Many netizens are questioning the timing, saying it could hurt the buzz. Trade experts feel the makers must create strong hype to drive advance bookings quickly.

Box office prospects remain uncertain. A thin storyline with predictable confrontations between hero and villain may disappoint viewers. However, after the success of Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal and Unni Mukundan’s Marco, some feel the Adults Only route could help attract curiosity.

Whether Baaghi 4 replicates that success or struggles with negative talk will be known soon. For Tiger Shroff, the film is a crucial test to prove whether mature, violent cinema can work in his favour the way it did for others.
